Quite a large concourse of people assembled at old Bladen Union church on Sunday last to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the church, it being 50 years since the church was first organ ized. The first pastor was the late Jordan W. Cobb, who serv ed the church for 10 or more years and did it faithfully. Part of his pastorate was during the civil war and just after. He was so true to his appointments he sometimes walked 15 to 20 miles to meet his people. His worthy son, Col. Stephen Cobb, was present and was asked to tell us something of what he knew, which he did in a pleasant way. We all were glad to meet him and listened with keen interest to what he said More Corn and Less Cotton An April Fool's Party Personal Mention. Correspondence of The Robesonian. Rev. R. E. Sentelle filled his appointment here Saturday and Sunday. He preached a fine ser mon. We have had the good fortune of securing his services for this year.

Shingle arc expensive, but they are actually cheaper during ten years than a ready roofing which needs frequent painting to keep it free from leaks.

Amatite has a real mineral sur face. That's why it needs no painting. Once laid on j our roof Shingles your building has real protection. Amatite is easier to lay than ever this year.
